K-3Pebble Plus: Backyard Birds series.
Very simple, declarative sentences present basic information about these common birds (physical description, habitat, diet, nesting habits, etc.) and encourage aspiring birdwatchers to "look for [them] in your backyard!" Full-color, close-up action photographs of the birds are the real standouts in the otherwise slight volumes. A habitat map and two or three Common Core–related questions are appended. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Pebble Plus: Backyard Birds titles: American Crows, Cardinals, Hummingbirds, and Robins.
